Are touchless car washes safe for vinyl wrapped cars?

Seems to be a lot of differing opinions out there.

I plastidipped my grille. Forgot all about and it took a pressure wand to it at one of those self washes. Ripped half of it off. Made my old lady peel the rest off. Luckily she’s got long nails.

What’s on your wrap? As soon as my rims get out of layaway I’m thinking about putting a custom Monster energy logo wrap on the hood.

Do touch less car washes actually clean the vehicle?

I actually wrap vehicles and first off, it’s a pain in the arse. Also, the vinyl has a 2 mil laminate that makes it way easier to clean. Any car washes are fine, but there’s a 3-7 year warranty on how long it’ll hold up depending on the actual vinyl used. It gets pricey for the 7 year matched with the expensive laminate used. Most buses I wrap use the 3 year stuff because graphics change a lot. Personal company vehicles tend to use the longer term vinyl/laminate and they usually last 7-10 years depending on climate.

If you don't mind advertising on your car you can earn $100-$500 a month. Wrapify is one company.


quote:

Wrapify

Payments via direct deposit

No long-term obligation

Relatively high estimated pay: $196-$452 per month

You are only paid for your first 25 to 35 miles per day

You are not eligible if you have a roof rack or hitch rack

To get started with Wrapify, download the Wrapify app and create a profile. In your profile, indicate whether you are a gig-economy worker with a job that involves driving, such as a rideshare driver, food delivery, or delivery person for companies (such as Amazon).

Wrapify has a driver marketplace that will allow gig workers additional opportunities to earn money, which is great if you already contract with companies like DoorDash, Lyft, or Uber.

Warning
Some companies don’t allow contract workers to display advertisements on the vehicles they use for work. Check the terms of your agreement before signing up with a car wrapping company.

Once you drive 50 miles with the Wrapify app downloaded, you will become eligible to receive campaign invitations. The Wrapify app has 3.7 out of 5 stars on the Google Play store, with most complaints being about app instability and inaccurate mileage tracking.

Wrapify has a lot of requirements for eligible drivers, but if you meet their requirements, it has relatively high payment tiers. This is an especially good option for gig workers who drive a lot.

Wrapify driver requirements:

Be over the age of 21

Pass a background check.

Operate a 2010 model year or newer coupe, sedan, SUV, pick-up truck, or minivan

Have a vehicle without severe body or paint damage
